Description

https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/7410#discussion_r440952996

RandomArrayGenerator::ArrayOf only accepts the length and null_probability of the generated array as parameters. It could define an options struct to allow test cases to specify type-dependent properties like numeric extrema, string lengths, etc
